Every time an Agoda customer checks out of a hotel we send them an email asking them to write a review of their stay. This is the only way reviews can be submitted. Every review must then be approved by our content team before being posted on the Agoda website. Therefore, unlike many other travel sites, ALL Agoda reviews are certified and genuine.

We want you to pay the lowest possible rate for your room. If you have reserved a hotel room through Agoda, and then show us that you could book the same room, for the same dates, at a lower rate, that is viewable and bookable on another website, we will either match that rate or beat it.

Sorry, there are no available rooms at the Meracus Hotel for your chosen dates.

The staff at the hotel were very attentive and helpful in making our stay a happy one. They spoke good English and were happy to sell us vacation packages - in a friendly/low pressure manner. The hotel is located near the water puppet theatre and lots of touristy stores/restaurants. I would recommend this hotel to others.

Nice clean room but no window at quiet back spot

Centrally located in the Old Dstrict of Hoan Kiem-Lake area

8.7

It was an eye opening experience with thousands of people, cars and motorbikes on the small streets. Walking through this area is a challenge and you have to move carefully watching your steps and the heavy traffic. The hotel staff are extremely friendly and we enjoyed our stay. Searching for proper restaurants can be a big challenge but we strongly recommend the restaurant Little Hanoi located behind the AIA/KFC building.

A wonderful comfortable experience

Staff attention to detail, room preparation, breakfast!

10

We were greeted with a lovely fruit juice and a personal welcome from the customer service manager, who gave us a detailed map with an attachment with advice for tourists new to Vietnam. The room was immaculate, with a balcony overlooking the street, roses on the bed and a personalised welcome letter from the manager (with a genuine signature). The fruit platter was lovely, and there was a laptop in the room for our personal use. The shower was huge and the most complex we've ever seen! The instructions are definitely necessary. The breakfast was one of the best we've had during our travels, and the service constantly attentive (especially for practicing your Vietnamese).

Fantastic Service

Very Helpful Staff and great location

9

We went to this hotel on our trip to Hanoi. The service was top notch from the beginning to end. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and had everything that we needed. The location was excellent for the walking around the old quarter. The hotel provided us with a very detailed map of the sights and shops around the Old Quarter.
I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Hanoi.

Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
This hotel is quite near the good restaurants. No need to get taxis to most places.

wonderful attentive service, lovely rooms

Everything! Service was really special and the rooms were lovely very central

10

The staff were superb in every way. Our tour was cancelled due to an impending typhoon, the hotel sorted everything out for us even arranging rooms at a partner hotel because they were fully booked when we were supposed to be in ha long. Breakfast was really lovely, with a great choice. There are lots of hotels downtown to choose from, but many of them are not that nice. Book now, you won't regret it. The only one thing to note is that the rooms aren't massive like some Asian hotels, but they certainly aren't small and you won't be uncomfortable.

Can't say enough positive things about this hotel. The staff were superb in every way. Our trip to Ha Long for cancelled due to an impending typhoon, the hotel sorted everything out for us even arranging rooms at a partner hotel because they were fully booked when we were supposed to be in ha long. Will stay again. Breakfast was really lovely, with a great choice. There are lots of hotels downtown to choose from, but many of them are not that nice. The Meracus and the Indochina are two of the best (Meracus edges it for me though). Book now, you won't regret it.

Hotel Feature Tip:
Get the hotel to pick you up from Hanoi Intl. airport for around 20 USD.
Book the superior/premier rooms and you get a nice room.

Excellent value, fantastic staff, perfect location

Lovely beds

10

For the price, this is a fantastic hotel from which to explore Hanoi. The rooms are beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. The staff were extremely efficient and polite. This hotel is striving to go above and beyond to create a memorable and personalized experience and they succeed.

Our experience at the Meracus was very enjoyable. The staff were friendly and courteous, the breakfast which was included had a good ariety of western and local fares. 9/10

Hotel Feature Tip:
Best to book bigger room if you have lots of luggage, and request a room off the street(can be street noise)

Lovely little peaceful hotel

Excellent service, location to Old Quarter, quiet

8.7

Hanoi and the old French quarter were a lot busier than we were expecting, so the Meracus hotel was a welcome haven from the crazy streets, while managing to be a great location for exploring.
Staff were very helpful and friendly, and the hotel only has a few rooms so it was very peaceful.
We would've liked a few more vegetarian options at breakfast, and be warned that Vietnamese coffee tastes a bit different to what you might be used to, but overall we'd definitely recommend staying here as a base to explore this part of Hanoi.

Hotel Feature Tip:
Use the hotel pick up service if you're coming from the airport - we were warned that taxis can overcharge and this made things very simple and was a very reasonable rate.
